Going back to work

I have mixed emotions about going back to work tomorrow. I love my job but leaving Ellee and Johannah is going to be super hard. For the last 2 months we have been inseparable. I haven't left them more than 30 minutes and the longest I left them was for an hour and a half because I had to go to the dentist. But tomorrow it will be all day. It will only be for a couple of weeks, until school is out, and then we get to be home for the Summer together. Of course then they start school and then I will be really sad. What makes it even harder to leave is that both girls are still not feeling great. They are both feeling better but their not 100% so it makes me sad to leave them knowing that they aren't feeling well. I will also miss my snuggle time with each of them in the morning. Normally it is Johannah first because she has an internal alarm clock that goes off at the same time every morning and so we snuggle for a little while and then she gets down and goes and plays. Then Ellee gets up and she comes straight to me and crawls up in my life and she snuggles up really close. Then we start our day. I'm going to stop now before I get really really really sad!

It is hard to believe that we will be home 2 months tomorrow too. It has been like they have always been here. I mean I remember my days in U but they are becoming a distant memory, not one that I will ever forget, but one that I will probably only remember and talk about when people ask.

I am going to end my blog post with some prayer requests tonight: My wonderful friend Amber's baby girl, with Down Syndrome, is back in the hospital tonight. They can't stop her vomiting. Please pray for comfort and answers. My friend Sonda had a beautiful baby boy a couple of days ago and he passed away this morning. Pray for comfort for this family. My friend Jennifer's grandfather is in the hospital. Please pray for him and their family during the days to recovery. Pray for our Nation, pray for our world leaders, pray for our local leaders, Pray for our Military who fight so hard so you and I can be free and we are free to pray because of them, Pray that God's will be done in all of our lives!
